AVIATION MUSEUM OF INFANTE DE ORLEANS FOUNDATION
Madrid, Spain, 2006–09
The Infante de Orleans Foundation houses the most important collection of historical aeroplanes still flying in Europe. The Foundation was created in 1989 with the mission of collecting and promoting aeroplanes that have played a role in Spanish aeronautical history. In 2006 the Foundation commissioned Lordcultura to conduct a Concept Revision for a new Aviation Museum that will house this important collection of historical aeroplanes. The new museum is to be designed by Foster and Partners Architects, probably on a site at Getafe, 15 km from Madrid, next to a military airport. In 2009, Lordcultura reviewed the Master Plan in order to present it to the organizations involved in securing the financial support of public institutions.
